Beautiful :wub:

My whifworld has Mitsubishi building SAAB fighters ( Lansen, Draken, Viggen and JAS-39), so you beat me to it. Will have to get around to them.
Whatever.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I'm waiting for a 1/48 Draken to appear in Australia, so I can build it & a Viggen in RAAF colours. ;)

Let's hope Hasegawa releases it Draken again soon, for the Viggen, Special Hobby can help but it's a rough build  :banghead: much more then their latest releases

I only have the Draken from the Mitsubishi catalogue, the others are all yours ;)

The problem for me now is this: how can l make a Japanese Draken that compares well with yours? It might have to have either a gray interceptor scheme (there are some nifty F-104J camos) or based on the F-4J green/green/tan one. 
Whatever.

Use one of the many anniversary schemes the JASDF put on Phantoms.  Like this one.

What about one based on the f-15 agressor schemes? The geometrical forms could go nicely with the draken

My Viggen is the 2018 Italeri offering which, according to Scalemates, began life as an Esci kit in 1978. Apparently Platz released a few "alternate decals" offerings of the Italeri kit last year, too
